This cardigan is inspired by the image of aster which is used in one of the most famous poems by Tao Yuanming --- Drinking Wine (the 5th).

Drinking Wine 5th by Tao Yuanming

In people’s haunt I built my cot;
Of wheel’s and hoof’s noise I hear not.
How can it leave on me no trace?
Secluded heart makes secluded place.
I pick fenceside asters at will;
Carefree I see the southern hill.
The mountain air’s fresh day and night;
Together birds go home in flight.
What revelation at this view?
Words fail me if I try to tell you.

Translated by Xu Yuanchong

The body of this cardigan is made of double crochets and fan patterns, and the sleeves are made of aster-shaped motifs.
